In the attached image, you can see an example of one of the main missions developed by Firefighters Without Borders Spain in Peru:
"Water purification in villages
which were left without drinking water
due to the sake of the earthquake."
which were left without drinking water
due to the sake of the earthquake."
This work was done at night to avoid the water evaporation that we provided to the elevated tanks.
During the day, shelters were built in the affected areas for families whose homes were in danger of collapse because of earthquake aftershocks or simply due to the buildings poor condition.
All this was done while other groups were responsible for distributing food and clothing supplies.
Our Rescue Team spent 15 days there.
Water purification courses that we organise in the whole Spanish territory are focused on working with machines in these cases, too.
PS: Images reflect both the management of the purification water machine displacement to its destination as the explanation for its use to local people.
